This commentary article is to be published alongside: Hernik, M., & Southgate, V. (2012). What do infants know about agents' goals? The authors see this issue consisting of two closely related questions. First, what is an agent to infants? Second, how do infants attribute goals to agents? Hernik and Southgage (H&S) focused on the second question. They discussed Luo and Baillargeon (2005) and stated that their study "falsifies" L&B's claims. While the authors view H&S's answers to the second question as an interesting alternative, they feel that it is essential to consider both questions to paint a clear picture of early intentional understanding. Therefore, the authors present recent research built on L&B (2005) and reiterate their positions, to clarify that H&S's results are indeed consistent with their claims.
